Likud’s Gilad Erdan snaps selfie with ‘two prime ministers’
Likud MK Gilad Erdan snaps a selfie with Netanyahu and Gantz.
“How many opportunities will I have to get a selfie with two prime ministers together?” he writes on Twitter. “An exciting moment. Congratulations to the prime minister and alternate prime minister. And despite the cynicism, [congratulations] to the State of Israel.”
Erdan is set to be appointed Israel’s ambassador to the US and UN.
The swearing-in of the ministers is continuing, with Aryeh Deri, Gila Gamliel, Yoav Gallant, and others taking the podium.
